Begin with a pickup directly from your hotel (or a pre-arranged meeting point) in Gallipoli by your private driver, fluent in Italian and English. From the very first moment, this is not just a transfer, but a carefully planned journey focused on comfort, exclusivity, and the authentic discovery of the region.
Leave Gallipoli and wind through the Salento countryside. Admire gentle hills dotted with centuries-old olive trees, traditional dry-stone walls shaping the landscape, and historic farmhouses nestled in the greenery. The scenery changes constantly: stretches of vineyards and prickly pear cacti alternative with small villages, rural churches, and glimpses of authentic local life, giving you the feeling of travelling through a world suspended between tradition and untouched nature.
Along the way, your driver will guide you along scenic roads, allowing you to stop at particularly picturesque spots and enjoy every detail of the Salento landscape, far from crowds and mass tourism. As you approach the coast, golden light and the scent of the sea begin to fill the air. Crystal-clear waters and dramatic cliffs of the Adriatic coast accompany the journey until you reach Santa Maria di Leuca, the southernmost point of Puglia, where the Adriatic and Ionian Seas meet.
Upon arrival in Leuca, you'll have the opportunity to explore the town’s most iconic sites at your own pace.
Visit the Sanctuary of Saint Maria de Finibus Terrae, a historic pilgrimage site at the southernmost tip of Italy. Admire the Faro di Leuca, a majestic lighthouse offering panoramic views of where the Adriatic and Ionian Seas converge, and stroll around the picturesque marina, animated by colourful boats and a charming waterfront setting.
After exploring the historic centre of Santa Maria di Leuca, at the agreed time your private driver will be waiting at the designated meeting point to comfortably escort you back to Gallipoli. The return journey in your luxury vehicle allows you to relax and enjoy once more the beauty of the Adriatic coast, leaving you with lasting memories of a day immersed in history, nature, and the timeless elegance of southern Puglia.
